What Kind of Sex Do The Japanese Get Up To?

A large scale scientific survey of Japanese sexual proclivities indicates just what kinky sexual antics they get up to.
The results come from the 2009 SOD Sex Survey, and incorporate responses from a stratified random sample of 1,000 Japanese aged 16-59 living in the vicinity of Tokyo who indicated they had at least one sexual partner (741 in total).
The results include homosexual pairings, but other questions indicate only 4% of both men and women surveyed admitted to any bisexual sexual activity, so the results are essentially overwhelmingly heterosexual. Additionally, half of overall respondents were married, 31% cohabiting and only 15% single.
It should be noted that the activities listed are exclusively considered in a sexual context, i.e. using drugs whilst having sex.
As might be expected, the sex Japanese get up to, such as it is, bears little resemblance to the fantasy sex presented in pornography, with 40% of Japanese apparently having sexual relationships not actually involving sex at all – little wonder birth rates are so low, as even Japanese with partners seemingly shun actual sex.
And of course the notion that Japan is a nation of perverts is a total fallacy…

Jesus F. Christ. 60% of Japanese in reproductive age who have sex partner haven't had normal sex during last year. National harakiri or what? Who's gonna draw animu for my grandchildren in 50 years?
Er.. My bad, 60% have had; 40% haven't. Still not funny.
Would the lack of sex have something to do with living in such close quarters? I'm thinking it might.
I find it kind of sad that Sumata is so low on list, especially considering how platonic Japan is. You would think that it would be much higher. Along with paizuri.
Then again, according to this survey, maybe the two are simply too "sxually deviant" for a country that would consider hugging to be sexual?
When "talking" is your 8th ranked sexual activity with your partner, you know that something is wrong somewhere...
you obviously havent heard a woman talk sexually
French Kiss FTW ! I'm french and i'm proud of it ^^
Let's see from the list I've done everything but:
Stimulated partner with nipples/breasts
Stimulated partners anus with hand
Drunk alcohol
Had partner stimulate anus with hand
and the drugs one
all with one girl might I add and no only 4chan can have the pics
I don't understand the "All" category
(Man + Woman) / 2. Average.
It's funny how a survey held by one of Japan's biggest ero companies has so few people watching porn.
Also, I find it hard to believe NO ONE there partakes in drugs.
Nothing wrong with poking your female friend in the butt, was a very safe way to have sex in highschool with a girl that didn't want to loose her virginity just yet & no accidental babies. :) Infact, first girl I dated brought up those points...kinda freaky, in a nice way, now that I think of it.
And yes, why isn't paizuri higher?
What? No waking up to harems?
Apart from the Japan exclusive male nipple play, this list looks very common and healthy.
I'm disappointed that tentacle sex isn't up there.
Even though they're anonymous, I somehow think that a lot of them are lying about certain things. Maybe more people need to take this survey there; And be honest next time.
Never knew Japanese women were into man nipples. I've hardly seen this activity in any JAVs. I'm gonna have to turn off now.
Seems like there are a bunch of girly men in Japan. It isn't a relationship until she gets poked in the bum.
Over all, it looks like guys do more work than girls.
Not that I'm complaining, it's a job I love.
Is that talking in the "relationship" or just during sex?
Cause the first one is sad, the second, well, to each their own :)
used illegal drugs:0
bullshit! japs love cracks just like niggas love kfc.
maybe anything is legal in japan, just like lolis.
1.9% of male had anal sex, 1.7 % of male had ejaculation in anal sex = =......
7.2% male had anus stimulated. Hmm... I wonder what this means.
34 % of male had their nipples stimulated.
Approximately 60% of population had vaginal sex.
Only 6% are into cosplay. That's kinda sad as well.
6.8% female compared to 3.4% male couldn't remember/don't know... Hmm....
True... I think that the proliferation of porn in Japan is part of a conspiracy to make them breed like rabbits, to save their race and nation. So american feminists and the likes are killing them out with those women-rights thing.... I mean if men are equal to women then there is no stopping me to punch an annoying bitch in the face! Then there should be no "women's only" transports for that is a direct abuse of "women's rights".
Hugs are sexual?
Now I get the shocking reaction after I hugged a japanese once.
i prefer to smoke some weed before i have a penis in my vagina ;)
That's interesting. Guys give more oral than girls. Reading this is making me kinda horny. >.>
after having sex with 9 americans and 3 japanese...i have to say it's all good! ;) i would just say to other americans who have japanese porn fantasies...to stop watching japanese porn. it's not reality.
I had no idea that talking, drinking alcohol and cosplaying were types of sexual activity.
;-D
The amount of people who had vaginal sex are probably in the 90% in reality, all this survey tells you is that ~60% admitted to having sex.
I'm not surprised that talking about sex is ranked lower than having sex though. Japanese people view sex as a natural process, like going to the bathroom etc. You don't really talk much about taking a shit unless you are a vulgar person. Similarly Japanese people won't really discuss it but they'll still do it.
It's all about that unspoken understanding between two people and the implicit and tacit agreement on various things. It's one of the primary causes of breakdowns in relationships between foreigners and Japanese women. The foreign guy always wants to talk about it, bring everything out on the table while the Japanese woman expects him to understand without talking about it.
7.9% of women masturbated while parter watched.
6.4% of men watched parter masterbate.
Some guys aren't paying much attention
Liars
i see some people are LYING...more butt poking and cum swallowing going on than they are telling
Interesting, it seems women would rather swallow semen than have it on their face.
I find the discrepancies between some of the "*ed partner" and corresponding "was *ed by partner" entries rather curious.
e.g.
"hugged partner": 80% men and "was hugged by partner": 80.3% women, but
"hugged partner": 67.2% women and "was hugged by partner": 53.3% men
The percentages of self-admitted homosexuals fail to explain the 14% gap.
What the? No footjobs?
It seems like Japanes women don't talk dirty. And that's the way I like my yamato nadeshiko.
Had partner use toys on you. On Males - 2.8%
Wait. Wat?!
Only 75% of the Japanese population has ever had a hug. No wonder they're so ronery.
I'm surprised that "paizuri/sumata" is as low as it is too.
Well, porn and hentai do create a false image of Japan.
Maybe we should always keep in mind that animation and porn offer a distorted view most of the time.
I didn't know hugging was sexual... I guess it depends on what goes on during a hug...
Looking at porn doesn't really count as "sex" either
I think it's just sexually based activities or activities that can result in sex for some
It does say that in the title to the graphs...
Good lord if this is any true indication about their sex lives they sure as hell aren't adventurous in the least bit. Hardly even any anal? cmon man
Only gay people do anal dood
Can't say I know a single guy who wouldn't hit a chick in the back door... guess we're dealing with a lot of gays here.
Well there's the odd exception for perverts of course
Verily.
God hid heaven in a girl's ass.
wut? isn't anal sex the foundation of homosexuality?
In the closet ones of course
@Trepiz
I know alot of gay people and they all say they mostly have oral sex and save the anal for special occasions
^ Sure, the shitload of porn out there where the girl is getting it in the ass is totally made for gays!
/sarcasm
Woah, drinking alcohol is counted as a sexual activity?
im more concerned what the "other/dont remember" concerns too, date rape =s
As noted by several above, many of these are decidedly non-sexual. Drink alcohol? Use drugs? TALK? Even the photography/filming question would seem innocent under normal circumstances.
Also, did no one think that a study directly asking people how kinky they are might not result in accurate results?
sad how a lot of lesbians have to get married to dudes just to get by in Japanese society
truly tragic for yuri
What can you expect from a patriarchal, misogynist, heteronormative country?
Found it interesting that the survey on first time masturbating brought up more women than men starting at age 9 or 10. men's responses peak at age 12 then drops dramatically by age 17, flat lining from age 20 onward. women's peaks are 10, 12, and 16, and continue to ripple along the way to 30.
When they say talking its probably something like phone sex
Wait a goddamn second, I'm a pervert and I haven't had sex in years.
ur doing it wrong
What a sad existence these people live =/
but hey... maybe talking is really sexual over there....
"Oh wow. All your talk about the color of your cat's hair has really turned me on. Now how about we hug to release some sexual tension."
Oh yeah. I can really imagine it all now.
Am I reading it wrong but it seems men are in almost all cases more affectionate.
I wonder what it would have been like if they added questions regarding loli sex to the equation.
I can understand if you don't know what your sexual proclivities are, but your sexual hobbies are definitely in the weird-to-entirely-fucked-up range if you can't remember them.
@ Nocturne 08:49
"I don't know the name for those things we did, but I'm pretty sure it was some kind of sex..."
*Batman theme*
Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun.
Date Rape!! (while she's drunk)
Wait, why is talking lower than kissing? That's just sad.
ROFL, more stimulating genitalis than talking! That's just... xD
True partner doesn't need to say anything, they can FEEL it..
There's an awful lot of GUYS that where "ejaculated onto face"...
The fuck...?!
females ejaculate to u know...
"overwhelmingly heterosexual" why does this phrase bother me ? I'm not a homophobe and I do like the idea of all women being secretly bi however I believe that homosexuality is less than 1% of any particular population. It's only normal, I have lived for 19 years now and haven't met or even heard of anyone gay.
Oh well, these results are weird anyway it said that like only 30% of ejaculations are intra-vaginal does that mean that 70% of the time people ejaculate somewhere else ? Ejaculating in a condom while having vaginal sex is still ejaculating in the vagina...
Too bad there is no "Ate shit".
Coprophags all over the Japan shoul be ashamed.
Kissing is higher than watch porn. Keep that in mind!
Given the low birth rate, I fully expected "getting it on" to rank lower than "talking about ceiling cracks".
So how many of these do you want to get out of the way when I see you this weekend?
Ok?
Filmed or photographed other:
All: 2.4%
Men: 3.1%
Women: 1.8%
Was filmed or photographed:
All: 2.2%
Men: .0%
Women 4.2%
Since no men was filmed or photographed, and 1.8% of the women filmed or photographed other. That would mean those 1.8% was filming or taking photoes of a lesbian act?
Get a room!
Just remember that ceiling cat can see you through that crack. And that my wall is about 6 inches thick and my roommates bed is literally propped up against the other side of it and sleeps during the day...
@Ghost Dog
I'm guessing nobody admitted to it for being an illegal activity.
I'd really like to see the statistics for the people who bought or sold sex, though...
It's a survey not statistics generated by espionage!!
I really had a good laugh...
Oh you guys :3
Upvoting this whole conversation, since it wins.
*sigh* Well, it's an improvement at least.
Ceiling cracks first. Then maybe looking at each other.
Ceiling cracks? I've always found floor cracks a much more stimulating topic of discussion.
How is it that the "Don't know/remember" category has some votes, but there aren't any votes for illegal drugs? I would think the 2 should have had similar votes.
Just don't do any "Don't know/remember." Those sound scary.
Kissing is the faster way to exchange words
More like faster way to exchange chemicals that may or may not enhance their relationships.
If talking is a sexual activity... Does that mean if I talk to lolis I am a pedophile?
If it's you doing the talking, I'd say yes, you've just committed a crime.
If talking is a sexual activity, then what happens when Chris Hansen asks you to sit over there?
If hugging is sexual activity, ppl are pedophiles because they are hugging their kids?
You can French Kiss your kids and still not be a pedophile. Really.
Aw...so Japan isnt full of Yamadas? Darn.
Actually it sounds more like it si full of Yamadas. She still has yet to do anything but kiss him, though it was more like he mouth raping him than a kiss.
HHAHHHAHHAAAAA
hmmm, yes.....
2D relationships FTW
I didn't know that "talking" was a sexual activity and I'm even more dismayed seeing it's 8th place.
ps : "drunk alcohol/used illegals drugs" xD
If talking is considered a sexual experience then that means I'm not a virgin anymore :D
guess my mom is raping me as she yell at me all the time while i don't want to listen
Mother/son incest? pics or it didn't happen
